Au contraire, mon cracker

CT Governor Malloy says to gun rights folks: You lost.

I’m guessing the ban was just the first enemy encroachment in the war on civil rights. And that war isn’t over.

    He’s bitter because he lost his chance to be president someday. He bought Bloomberg’s bullshit and knows he is currently in his last job in politics. Chances are he couldn’t even pull US Senator now, even in CT.

    Losers lose. We’ll get the win, eventually. And when we do, he’ll be on the scrap pile of politics: whining on MSNBC about how awful we voter dogs bite the hands of their masters.

    I surely hope that our ruling elite doesn’t expect we of the hoi polio to store all our guns in one place for easy confiscation?

    Long-Term Gun Storage
    There is a saying that goes, “If it’s time to bury your guns, then its time to dig them up.” Some say that if you hide your gun off-site, it becomes useless. Either way, if you plan to store your gun for the long-term, you need to make sure you have pre-treated it properly and prepared your storage area properly to prevent rust from ruining your weapon. Whether you’re choosing to store your hunting rifle at home until the next season, storing a gun collection or preparing for the future, preparing the weapons beforehand is done the same way.

    Gun Storage Containers

    First, you must make sure you have the proper storage container. Do not use the original cardboard box of your gun or any cardboard box. Further, do not use foam or sheep skinned-lined cases. Cardboard, sheep skin and foam all attract moisture. A silicon-treated gun sock, gun storage bags, or any gun safe is your best bet if you are keeping your gun at home. You can also wrap your gun in kitchen wax paper instead of a bag or a sock. If you choose this method, make sure no parts are sticking out, wrap it mummy-style and secure with masking tape. If you are going to be using a gun safe, store your long guns barrel down so that no oil can seep into the stock or other parts of the gun.

    Hoppe’s “Guide to Gun Care” says that any moisture will start the rusting process within 24 hours. Moisture can also cause your stock to crack. Put desiccant in your safe or in any bag you put your weapon in to prevent moisture build-up.

    Preparing For Storage

    Break down your gun as much as you can. Keep the gun decocked to relieve tension on springs and other parts, or remove hammer springs, firing pin springs and recoil springs. Remove all fingerprints from your gun using Outer’s silicone gun and reel cloth or a cloth with Break-Free CLP. Copper, lead, plastic and carbon will all attract moisture, so completely clean your gun, preferably with products that are ammonia-free, such as Hoppe’s Elite Gun Cleaner and Copper Terminator. Thoroughly clean out the bore of your gun and then apply a thin layer of lubrication, such as Break-Free CLP. Also apply a light coat of lubrication to other exterior metal surfaces. Birchwood Casey’s Barricade rust prevention contains metal preservatives that will leave a transparent coating to seal the surface with a protective film. Note that greases and other petroleum-based products will ruin plastic and synthetic stocks and rubber pistol grips, so apply lubrication and oils only to the metal parts of the gun.

    Wood stocks need special attention. You will need to treat your wood stock with wax to prevent swelling and cracking. Birchwood Casey’s gun stock wax is safe to use on wood, metal and leather. Do not forget to wax inside the stock. Remove as much of the metal parts as you can, such as the receiver and barrel. Wax the wood under the metal and then reassemble the gun before storing.

    Check your stored gun periodically, especially if you live in a humid area and re-oil if necessary.

    Burying Your Weapon

    If you decide to bury your weapon for a bug-out situation, preparing it for storage is just the same as illustrated above, with the exception of storing it in a gun sock. Instead, use wax paper or storage bags, such as Aloksak Weapons Storage Bags for handguns and for rifles. Underground storage takes extra steps. You will want your long-term storage container to be corrosion-and weather-proof. Get PVC or ABS pipe thick enough to store your rifle or handgun in. Seal the pipe with threaded, water-proof sealant.

    Before you decide to bury your weapon/weapons, consider the following:

    1.Remember your location. Will it be easy to access? Will you look suspicious burying it there or driving by to check on it? Will new construction cover it up?
    2. Recovery time. Your weapon may not be in pick-up and fire condition. You will need to wipe off all excess grease. If you have prepared and stored your gun correctly, it should work when you uncover it.
    3. Can others detect it? Some suggest picking an area that has metal parts lying around already, so that a metal detector may not find your rifle, but will find scrap metal instead.

    Take a look at how Dannel is doing otherwise:

    EAST HARTFORD – Connecticut’s Tax Freedom Day – the day on which the state’s citizens stop working for the government and start working for themselves – comes on May 13, 2013, the latest in the nation according to a new report by the Tax Foundation. Yankee Institute Executive Director Fergus Cullen reacted by saying, “This is what happens when state government has an insatiable appetite for spending. Until we get spending under control, we’ll spend more time working for the government and less time working for ourselves.”
    The news comes on the heels of the Yankee Institute’s January 2013 report on Connecticut’s List of Lasts, the growing list of rankings that put Connecticut at the bottom of the heap compared to other states.

    Barron’s rated Connecticut’s debt situation as the worst in the country in 2012

    TopRetirements.com ranked Connecticut as the 2012 worst state for retirement

    The Institute for Truth in Accounting ranked Connecticut’s financial status as the worst in the nation with a debt burden of $49,000 per taxpayer
    Connecticut’s credit quality was ranked 50th in the nation by Conning Inc’s State of the States Municipal Credit Research Report in 2012

    Connecticut’s Achievement Gap is the worst in the nation according to the Connecticut Council for Education Reform

    The Fiscal Policy Report Card on America’s Governors by the Cato Institute gave Gov. Dan Malloy an “F”
    The Yankee Institute keeps track of these and other state rankings at the Yankee PolicyWiki.
    Cullen concluded: “Getting Connecticut back on top should be the #1 priority of elected officials in Hartford. Pro-growth policies like reduced spending and lower taxes will improve the quality of life in Connecticut for all residents.

    I can’t hear what he is saying over his condescending tone. What a pompous dope!

  5. Joe Huffman Says:

    @Patrick,

    You are right as far as you go with “We’ll get the win, eventually. And when we do, he’ll be on the scrap pile of politics.” But I think it should go further. We need to prosecute him and others like him.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
